We

There is more than one artist with this name: 1) Norwegian quartet We was formed in 1993 by Krisvaag, Don Dons, Goshie and Thomas Felberg. Hailing from Oslo, Norway, the band soon started a reputation for being a phenomenal liveact. Playing shitloads of clubgigs in and around Oslo the first years soon made them sign to norwegian label Voices of Wonder in 1996. The release of their debut album Violently Coloured Sneakers the same year received great reactions from the press, both in Norway and Europe.

Lost In Colour

WE ARE LOST IN COLOUR
We finalised our line in March 2009 and havn't looked back since. We began as a three piece under a different name precisely a year ago and we have met some wicked people, played some wicked shows all across the UK, with some wicked bands and some how crammed a tiny venue with 400 people who witnessed our second show under the name Lost In Colour. We were lucky enough to work with producer Jason Wilcock (You Me At Six, Fightstar) at Stakeout Studios on our new track 'Stay Awake Tonight' and we plan to return and record more of our new material.

Twine

There at least two different representatives of the name Twine. 1) Baltimore, Maryland's Greg Malcolm and San Diego, California's Chad Mossholder comprise a unique musical entity. Twine is the culmination of their extended history, which includes their acclaimed 2002 LP Recorder for France's Bip-Hop and their distinguished catalogue for Chicago's Hefty Records and Sweden's Komplott. Their sound contains a mysterious and unresolved quality, the result of the musical relationship which the group's two main practitioners share.
